Scene: At Wedding, Melanie watched the ceremony solemnly, even if she hated
them. After the ceremony, the parties began, which are Melanie's favourite
celebrations of a wedding, as she can dance, sing and stay up all night.
Melanie was staring into deep space, as usual, thinking about whatever
random thing came into her head. She was suddenly broken out of it when she
spotted Commodore Norrington.
"Congratulations, James" She greeted. "Nice to see you've actually got over ma!" she laughed. "Yes, that I have, Melanie, and now, as you can see, I have a beautiful wife!" "An' about time too." She whispered under her breath. Then spotted her friend, and went over to join him, to drink some punch. "Hey Luke" She said "Oh, hi Mel" Came the 'just about' sober reply. This boy, Luke or Lucas had long deep brown hair, and Mel quite liked him, even if he was her best friend. "Um, I was wondering, would you like a dance?" He continued "It would be a pleasure!" She replied with utter delight. As the two danced, Mel talked to him, about her mother and Will. "Luke? Have you ever noticed, that I don't resemble Will, er dad at all?" "No, why?"
"Oh nothing, it's just ... never mind" Luke just left it at that, as he knew if he started to get nosy, she'd have an argument with him, and he wasn't in that mood.
Suddenly Melanie was aware of a ship docking and as she loved to greet the people who often visited the port, she couldn't wait to get to the dock.
"Oooh, someone's coming ashore...hey, who's he? I've never seen him before. But, I like the hair!" She said quickly.
"Oh, yes." Said Elizabeth, with a slightly depressed sounding voice.
"I wanna go an' meet that guy!" "Oh, hi W...dad" She rushed before attempting to dash of across the to the deck.
"NO!" Elizabeth and Will grabbed her, to prevent her from going much farther. However she was too strong for them, and struggled free.
"You know, Elizabeth, she'll have to know that I have pirate blood and know of my 'adventures' soon, before she accidentally finds out from...Jack."
"Arrrh! Stupid dress, can't... run...uk!" Shrieked Melanie, as she frantically tried to run with her corset, shoes and long dress.
"Having trouble there, young missy?"
"Aye, waaa! Blimey, don' you creep up on me like that!"
"Why not, love?
"I'm the daughter of a governor, don't ya know? Oh, and, please, call me Mel!"
"Well, Mel, I suppose that's as good as your excuse gets, is it?" "Ahh, dear Elizabeth and Will's daughter, no doubt, eh?" He replied, after he'd realised that she had mentioned a governor.
"Yeah... wait, you know them?" She asked eyeing him curiously. Jack nodded and gave her a small side grin. Jack's posture made him look constantly drunk, however the reason this was because on a venture a few years before, he went a little mad, because it was so hot.
"Aye, I know 'em" He said, in deep thought. "I sailed with Will, an' got drunk on an island, with Elizabeth."
"Bet that was fun!" Laughed Mel sarcastically.
"It's Mrs Turner, anyway" Came a voice from behind them, making both Mel and Jack jump. "And at least I was sober enough to control myself, and you!" She progressed on.
"Exactly my point...'fun'" Whispered Mel to him.
"Melanie, meet Jack. Jack this is our daughter, Melanie"
"Wooow, Captain Jack Sparrow?"
"That's me, love! And, I know that this is Mel, we've already been aquatinted."
"I've heard a lot about you, you're the most successful pirate in the Caribbean, I also found out that you're a bit of a womaniser!" Mel pressed on.
"That'd be me, you've described me perfectly!" He said scruffing up her hair
"Thanks! I've been dying to do that for ages!" she said, clasping her hands together, as if in prayer, and lowering her head slightly (this was her way of saying thank you). At this swift gesture, Jack scowled at her.
"But, I'd bet me ship she doesn't know about us." He claimed, looking from Elizabeth to Will. Melanie wasn't listening though, she was in awe, I mean, she was looking up at Captain Jack Sparrow, and deep in thought again.
*Most of the people who came into the port, came regularly, it was rare that someone new came, although, it was always going to happen.
